What, no "Stallman was right?"

Okay. Stallman was right. I know it's cliche, I know he's weird. But I learned a LONG TIME AGO never to bet against the man's predictions and ideas on software. He called all of this, and quite a few people (especially HERE) would do well to get back to fundamentals and work on fixing it.



You're not wrong, Walter, ...


Imagine being that right, that often, on things that important - and being ignored / smeared / mocked for your trouble.


Forgive me, I forgot criticism amounts to sacrilege.


Like a modern day Cassandra.


GNU/right, please
